Bike Travelling Man: a life with two motorcycles by Keith Jahans

A personal account of a trip to the Munich Beer Festival in 1980; supplemented by memories of motorcycling activities before and after that time. Most of the latter experiences rely largely on memory, but the author is grateful for the fact that he always took a camera with him.

Book Sample
I bought my first motorcycle, a Honda CB125, in 1974 from a work colleague with whom I shared a group rented house on Woking’s York Road in Surrey, England. I can not remember how much I paid for it but I do know that I had no idea how to ride. In those days you appied for a provisional driving licence from the Post Office, slapped an L plate on the front and back, and off you went.
